I'lKniUC, S. I)., Jan. 24. (Special Tele
Krom.) The attorney general today ren
Ucrcd an opinion In the matter ot appoint
mcnt ot members of tho Soldiers' Uomn
board, which wan based ou practically the
Rami) grounds as the decision la the case
of tho Statu Hoard ot Charltlcg. Ho holds
that two of tho present members havo
never been confirmed by the scnutc nml
nro nicroly holding until their places can
bo filled under the provlalonH ot tho law,
and that a third member Is holding tor
a term which will explro within n fow days
after the adjournment ot tho legislature,
and that It would be proper to send In a
nomination for that place.
This mean new appointments for a
majority of tho board and u clinnRO In tho
management of the home within a few
months.
An opinion wot; also rendered In the mat
ter of lusne of emergency warrants. Tho
opponents to HiIh move held that, ns tho
warrants were Issued on taxes assessed
and not colleoted, all receipt nfter tho Is.
mio must bo held In. tho treasury until
tho warrants tiro paid. In regard to this
contention thn attorney Kencral holds In
effect that tho treasurer Is given discre
tionary power In regard to tho-use of funds
received so lonj? nn ho keeps In view tho
fact of tho need of meeting I ho warrantn
when duo and so handles the fundi that
tho povor of payment at that time Is
not Impaired. To hold otherwise Is to prnc
tlrally annul tho law and tako from It the
power lo grunt relief In an emergency for
which It was created.

Miss O'Connoll will spealt of tno csiauusa
ir.ent and progress of the work, nlso ot Its
object and the results hoped for. Mrs.
Loblngler, lender of the department, has
extended n general invitation to all to be
present.
At the Wednesday afternoou's meeting
of tho Woman's Christian Temperance
union the women enmo as near to n de
cided difference of opinion as that woll
conducted body hns ever come, and the
question of appropriating an additional
JIOO to tho Wlllard Temple fund was tho
cause of It. Though It had been ropeatedly
announoed that the matter must be decided,
the light nttendnnco nt tho last three
meetings had caused It to be postponed
until yosterday, when somo action had to
be taken on the matter. After somo dls
cuislon It was proposed that 1100 bo ap
propriated for tho tctnplo fund, but this
proved to bo objectionable to some of the
members, who felt that ns tho union had
already made an appropriation to the fund
U should reservo its money to use lu the
local work, in which tho demaud Is very
heavy. Others felt that ns an extension
had been granted on tho mortgage and the
templo Is now a paying Institution the
union could afford to risk that sum as a
part of tho $1,000 pledged by tho Nebraska
union and tako ttn chances upon the na
tlonal organltatlon redeeming the temple,
lu which caso the $1,000 would prove a pay
ing Investment. This latter plan was
favored by the majority nnd tho appropria
tion finally carried.
Several of tho dlsscutlng members re
fused to vote, however, nnd claimed that
their opinion would bo uphold by a num
ber of absent tncmbors. As the motion did
not stipulate any especial tlino at which
tho money was to bo paid the matter was
carofully talked over and It was decided
In u'IMihnM thn nnnrnnrlntlon and notify
thn Mnrnlnrv nf Itin lumnlfl ftmd rnmmtttia
that If there was assurance that the temple
could tie redeemed witnin tne oxtenaeu
tltno tho Otnnlia union would pay $100 of
tliA nmnilnt nt'cmnrv In mrft thA tlttnmnil.
This adjustment proved satisfactory to tho
majority.
Tho city missionaries' reports on the work
at the ColtuRe and In the Tenth street
city mission wero most satisfactory. Mrs,
Morton, who, with her husband, Hcv. Hor
ton, camo last week from Hed Cloud to
tako charge of the gospel, evening nud visit
ing work at Tenth street mission, nUo
spoke. Sho will make a specialty of visit
ing the homes In tho vicinity of the mis
Hlon and. belug an experienced worker, the
union anticipates splendid results.
There was a called meeting nt Gardner

MANILA, Jan. 24. General MacArthur
has ordered tho deportation to the United
States of (leorgo T. Itlce, editor ot the
Dally Ilulietln, a marine Journal. Hlco will
sail ou the Pennsylvania next Monday. The
order characterlies him as "a dangerous In
ccndlary and a menace to the military sit
uation." Hlce's offense was the publication ot alle
gations that Lieutenant Conimuuder Wll
Ham Urauucrsrctithcr, captain ot tho port,
had chnrged excessive pllotngo and moorage
fees, 3 per cent of which he had kept for
himself. The report of Major Mills, Inspec
tor general, which Inspected tho matter,
exonerated thn captain nt the port and In
dicted the editor nnd the merchants who
had given him Information nnd who had
been misled by flguriug the rates upon the
not Instead ot tho gross tonnage, tho latter
being specified under the Spanish law.
Hlco was summoned to tho office ot the
governor general's military secretary nnd
was culled upon to promlso that he would
publish no morn such articles. Ho rte
I'llned to give such a pledge, but inilsled
that tho article was truthful and took up
a defiant attltudu when threatened with
deportation. The deportntton order was
then Issued and Hlco Is now awaiting tho
depnrturn of tho Pennsylvania.
When seen In Jail today Hlco reiterated
his statement that the charges wero true
nnd declared that in nny event the severity
of tho senlenco was unmerited. Hire camo
from Hed Wing, Minn;, and was formerly
a member of the Minnesota volunteors.
MUSIC. t
Unity church has had Its concert, and
henceforth the honorable member of the
guild of organ-blowers, who has fed air to
the hungry bollows of the Unity church
orgnn Sunday after Sunday, will be without
the realm of music and will doubtless bo
obllgod to dovoto his talents to some more
prosaic use. All of which refers to tho
fact that the members of Unity church
decided to havo un organ motor, and so
they gavo a concort nnd charged an admis
sion fee, which was willingly paid by sev
eral hundred pcoplo, so that thoy could
hear the offerings of the distinguished
musical people who participated In last
night's program.
Mr. Oahm was unavoidably absent,
through Illness, and Hcv. Norton Mann In
his graceful nnd urbnnn manner announced
that tho pianist's place would be taken by
.Mr. Kcefer, who had kindly consented to
nppear on very .short notice, and with no
chance for preparation. Mr. Keofcr has a
certain brilliancy and dash about his work
which Is plenslng, and ho Is a modest, ar
tistic fellow, who works with hand nnd
head and heart. A broader vista of
planlstlc experience will certainly develop
to a great degrco tho already concoded
talents of tho young man.

Whllo tho attendance was not as largo
as might have been cxpectod those present
were all enthusiastically In favor of estab
lishing such nn organization In tho city
and a numbor of Influential women who
could not be present sent written regrels
and hearty Indorsements of tho league.
That such a charity Is wanted ntul will be
well sustained here was evident and nfter
ii genarul discussion It was decided to call
a general meeting of everybody Interested
nt (lardner Memorial house next Wednes
day afternoon nt 3 o'clock, when the league
will bo organized and officers elected.
There will be a meeting of tho Daughters
ot tho American Revolution on Monday
evening at tho home of Mrs. W. D. Wil

The kindergarten teachers' "Odyssey"
class met as usual on Tuesday afternoon
with an attendance nt about seventy. Thu
regular leseon, questions on the third nnd
fourth books, was covered and In addition
Miss Mabel Kelley read u paper on "Nan

on Tuesday evening Custer Woman's Hcllef
corps treated tho post to un oyster supper.
Yesterday morning's meeting of (ho house
hold economics department of the Woman's
club was well attended, the feature of tho
session being n paper on "Huotoria," by
Mrs. W. W. Wilbur, which was ono of tho
strongest thnt has becu produced in the
club this year. Aside from the prelimi
nary reports, all business was waived. The
magazine review lead to on Interesting dls
cussslon of tho number of meats and the
tltno at which they should bo served In
the day.
Among the several visitors were Mrs.
George Cross of Falrbury, treasurer ot tho
Stato Federation, nnd Mrs. Wheelor of
Wakefield. Doth women ore enthusiastic
club members and each made a short ad
dress to tho department. At tho conclusion
of the session the members of the English
literature department, with their visitors,
met with the household economics depart
ment and a brief social session was en
Joyed. The club women "ht Omnha experienced s
real disappointment this week nt not being
able to entertain In some suitable manner
the women of the Nebraska Tress associa
tion. Their disappointment was espoclnlly
keen when, on Tuesday, It wbb learned that
so many of the visitors were members of
tho Stnto Federation of Woman's Clubs and
nothing bad been arranged In their honor
by tho Omnha Womnn's club. A meeting
was at once called to arrange for an In
formal reception, but n review of tho visi
tors' calendar proved the time too occupied
lo admit of anything more, lly means of
telephone nnd messei.ger service a goodly
number of club women were reached, how
over, and theso nttended part of the sessions
and so at leust mot tho guests that they
wero not privileged to entertain.
Tho visitors did not lack nttentlon from
the other women's organizations of the city.
Tho Omaha Equality club was tho first to
extend courtesy to them, and this wus done
by a carefully arranged reception held In
the parloru and banquet room of the Paxton
hotel from 4 30 to 6:30 on Tuesday after
noon. There wero about 100 women present,
among whom were somo of the brightest of
the state. The president, Mrs. Clara Young
of Broken jjow, and the vice prettdsai. Mrs.
Her technique was equal to all emer
gencies and she showed a certain nmount
of psychic force that carried conviction.
Mrs. Davis Is a very capable woman and
barring some Injudicious registration and
quite unorchestrnt tone-coloring in Mrs.
Ely's accompaniment, she Is eminently
satisfactory. The effect of a French horn
and piccolo In uulson I not goon. While
this was not the effect Intended It was the
effect produced. (This In kindness.)
Mrs. Coe sang with more warmth and
with more general excellence of tone than
ever heard from her before by the present
critic.
Mr. Hnumelster, violinist, does some re
markable work on his Instrument. Strange
to say the most dliricult work Is that which
ho does best, it may be suggested In per
fect honesty and friendliness to Mr.
Daumelster that he would do n good thing
for himself were ho to study more on his
simple legates and on his broad, great
tones, for his melodic phrases are u trllle
ragged. Hut ho has tho stuff In him.
Mrs. Ely sung that beautiful old air from
"Mlgnon" known to our ears as "Dost Thou
Know Thnt Sweet Land?" with much luxury
of tone. She also gave a clever little ballad
ns ntt cuocrc.
Mr. Oscar Oarelssen gave forth his beauti
ful voice lu hto usual studied nnd con
vincing manner and did somo brilliant nr.
corapanylng, notably the "Murmt.rlng
Zephyrs" number, which Is frequently
played ns n piano number.
The attraction of the evening Mas of
course Mlsi Isabella (larelssen. It is
scarcely fair tit Judge n new singer 1 her
first appearance, especially lit this case,
when everyone knew that It was thft young
nrtlst's Omaha debut, and when great
things wero expected. by tho many admirers
and friends of her brother. Hut Miss
Oarelssen rose to tho occasion with com
placent fortitude. Her voice showed but
little nervousness or tremor, ntul In her
Engttsh bnllml sho was captivating. Her
singing is peculiar, but It Is fnsrlnntlng.
Her tont-color Is unusual nnd consequently
It Is startling, at first, but It grows on one
with n potent charm. As a soloist In Omaha
Miss (larelssen need not fear the results
of her debut.

The Dundee Woman's club met on
Wednesduy ut tho home of Mrs. I. S
Leavltt. Tho flue weather brought out a
large attondanco and an excellent program
was enjoyed by all. Tho period of English
history under discussion was that of Honry
VIII. which In Itself is occupying two
months' ot study. Mrs, Leavltt gave on
Interesting account of the grammar schools
founded nt that time, and Mrs. Noah I'erry
iota in a very nnisned and fascinating ad
dress the life and work of the groat Eras
mus, It Is quite a coincidence that in W.
J. Bryan's paper, tho Commonor, which
made Its initial appearance this samo after
noon, there Is a long quotation from Eras
mus relative to Christianity's position with
regard to war.
Mrs. Pyko rend a graphic description of
"Tho Field of tho Cloth of Gold." and tho
club then resumed its responsive rending
of Tennyson's "Queen Mary," begun a.
the last meeting. The novel, "When Knight
hood Was in Flower." which bears upon
